Summary

Provides estimates of the size of the Australian population age 15 or older who are no longer attending primary or secondary school, in total, by age group, and by sex, based on highest year of school completed. Level of primary or secondary school a person has completed is classified using the Australian Standard Classification of Education (ASCED), 2001 (cat. no. 1272.0). Counts are based on place of usual residence, ie, the place where a person usually lives. It may, or may not, be the place where the person was counted on Census night. The Australian Census of Population and Housing collects a range of demographic, social, and economic information on Census Night. All persons and dwellings in Australia and the external Territories of Christmas Island and Cocos (Keeling) islands on Census Night are counted, excluding diplomats, their families and diplomatic dwellings, and visitors from overseas who are not required to undergo migration formalities, such as foreign crews on ships. Visitors to Australia are counted regardless of how long they have been in the country or how long they plan to stay. Australian residents out of the country on census night are out of the scope of the census. Results provide a reliable basis to estimate the population for each state and territory and local government area for electoral purposes and distribution of government funds. The census also provides the characteristics of the Australian population and its housing for small areas and small population groups to support the planning, administration, and policy development activities of governments, business, and other users. Following the 1961 Census, Australia has had a census taken every five years. Statistics are available for the nation as a whole, and for states, territories, Statistical Area Levels 1-4, and additional subnational geographies. For information on Australian statistical geographies, please visit https://www.abs.gov.au/websitedbs/D3310114.nsf/home/geography . The census uses Australian Standard Classifications where available and appropriate. Where an Australian Standard Classification is not available, classifications specific to census variables have been developed.
